Al-Burhan Group and American Science and Engineering, US manufacturer of x-ray and inspection equipment, signed an agreement to open a branch office in Baghdad to provide the US company’s advanced machines to commercial organisations in Iraq.

Members of American Science and Engineering's Senior Management signed the contract with Al-Burhan Group on 9th May 2014 to open their branch office in Al-Burhan Centre, near Baghdad International Airport.

The deal will allow the two companies to provide clients with low radiation equipment and maintenance, including internationally revered ZBV portals which can ensure that those entering Iraqi airports will be thoroughly and appropriately scanned with the best technology available on the market.

The contract can also provide Iraqi airports with vastly improved capabilities in terms of scanning, monitoring and managing cargo that runs through their facilities. AS&E's patented OmniView Gantry will be present and part of the assurance of security, while the contract facilitates the presence of Z-Portals and ZBVs, further bolstering the already impressive line-up.

Such a signing is further indication of the fine work undergone by ABG to lay a foundation for success in Iraq via the best available technology and security protocols at all times. AS&E are one of the most globally respected companies in the market today, with numerous advances in the aviation security industry due to their professional efforts.

Al-Burhan Group works closely with partners such as AS&E to ensure that Iraq can continue building towards positioning itself amongst its international peers. For more information on AS&E, please visit www.as-e.com.
